I have been trying to figure out where this oil leak is coming from, I know for a fact that it is not the oil pan, vtec solenoid, and valve cover. Here is a picture so any help on this would be appreciated. I think it might be the rear main seal but I am not sure, here's the picture.

check to see if your oil pressure sending unit is tight. if it is the unit that is leaking and its not bad, remove, clean and use a little tephlon tape when you re instal. that pic is a little to close to see were all the oil is on the car. i just has to replace mine. it crapped oil all over the back of my engine, what a mess to clean up. clean up the engine as well as possible, investigate further and hope to god its not your head gasket

The picture is underneath where the transmission bolts up to the block.

if its coming from between the block and the trans then its the rear main seal... but check the back of the head gasket to make sure it isn't just dripping down from there... I can't believe your clutch isn't slipping if the rear main seal went.
